From
Wikipedia, the free encyclopedia
In
the United
States the right
to petition is
guaranteed by the First
Amendment to
the United
States Constitution,
which specifically prohibits Congress from
abridging "the right of the people...to petition the
Government for a redress of grievances".
Although
often overlooked in favor of other more famous freedoms,
and sometimes taken for granted, many
other civil
liberties are
enforceable against the government only by exercising this basic
right. The right
to petition is
regarded as fundamental in some republics,
such as the United
States,
as a means of protecting public participation in government."
- Those suggestions are, in fact, an example of the execution of the above-cited and most basic constitutional right.
- The "grievance" addressed is the making-of-law and amending the Constitution from the bench by those judges who would take that power from The People as executed through their democratically elected representatives.
There
are those who attack President Trump's use of suggestions, for
judicial nominations, from the Federalist Society as being
enslavement to a "far right organization".
